Mother’s Day – Produce Prepare Protect

Happy Mother’s Day!

We love to honor our Mother & Father according to scripture.

Exodus 20:12 (NIV2011) “Honor your father and your mother, so that you may live long in the land the Lord your God is giving you.

Parenting is an essential part of life. The actions of our parents shape us, and our actions as parents shape others.

Here are 3 essentials in parenting. Every Parent must…

1- Produce

You aren’t a biological parent until you produce a baby. You produce their genes, chromosomes, and other things molecular. But you also produce your character in them.

God has a spiritual law of production, that what you are is reproduced in others. So be mindful of who you are, because it will reproduce in others.

2- Prepare

A Parent is called to prepare their child for life. They need your direction.

Scripture likens children as arrows. There is much preparation required in sending an arrow.

3- Protect

As a parent we are called to protect.

If we don;t protect what we have produced we may lose it.

If we don’t protect what we have prepared we may lose it.

Happy Mother’s day!

Welcome to Redemption Church in Plano Tx. My name is Chris Fluitt. I am blessed to serve at Redemption as Lead Pastor, and I am blessed to be with you all on Mother’s day. I want you to know that I love Mother’s day.

How much do we love Mother’s day at Redemption? We love it so much that we have suspended all terrible Tim Allen intro videos in honor of our mothers.

I think it is important that we honor our mother & father. It almost seems like that is a Biblical idea… Oh wait! It is. God commanded this!

Exodus 20:12 (NIV2011) “Honor your father and your mother, so that you may live long in the land the Lord your God is giving you.

Thank you so much for coming to worship God today. Also I give a huge thank you to everyone joining us online. Hello Facebook Live. Hello Youtube & podcast people! Happy Mother’s day.

3 P’s of Parenting

Parenting is about production. A parent must produce.

Parents Produce

You are a product of your parents. They produced you.

Your parents produced your chromosomes. Your DNA, your genetic traits like eye color, height, and skin tone, were produced by your mom & dad.

We like to think about our individuality and independence, but we would not exist without parents.

The smallest, most essential things about your physical person were not produced by you, but by your parents.

Parents Produce!

A good parent produces beyond the molecular level.

We become a product of our parent’s character and personality. We become a product of the home environment. The amount of time a parent spends, or does not spend, will produce things.

This is a natural law of creation. When you read the creation account in the book of Genesis you will find the phrase “produce.. after its kind”, or “according to its kind.”

This is why an apple seed produces and apple tree.
